About eWillys
Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
“This jeep might be a M38 vin-ed as a cj2a, Im not an expert with these so it could be a late military jeep or the first civilian jeep made. This jeep is in great condition and runs strong, everything works except for the few following, the choke cable is broken so the choke is held wide open (not a big deal in AZ), the oil canister leaks a tiny bit but all it needs is a new O-ring/gasket (napa sells them), the transmission has a small leak or it could be the rear main seal not sure but I have both on order and should be here this week, the brakes need to be bled there is air bubbles in the lines so the bakes need to be pumped once to engage them. The seats are out of a cj5 but the original seat frames are still in place, all they need is new cushions. Other than this being 65 years old it is in great condition, there are a few small rust holes, 3 total about the size of a quarter. I bought this for a project and I do not have the time due to my work schedule, If you want to come look at it or go for a ride I can show you everything works including the 4 wheel drive high and low, The engine was rebuilt about 1000 miles ago. Please only call after 330 on weekdays but you can text me or email me anytime,”

“This Jeep was given to me by a friend who’s grandfather died and left it to him. He lost the title so it only comes with a bill of sale. The granddad has owned it for many many years.
It sure not perfect and won’t win any beauty contests but he did have it running and driving about 2 years ago. As far as I can tell it’s pretty much complete and original and for the most part un-molested. This jeep is 65 years old so I would much rather you plan for the worst and hope for the best than be disappointed in any way-now that having been said I can’t imagine a better project jeep for the price. ”

If I interpret this ad correctly, this was a $40k present for his son (I have lots of thoughts here I think I will keep them to myself –btw, Medina is where Bill Gates built his 66,000 sqft house, so if this seller lives in Medina, I suspect he didn’t blink spending $40k on a jeep). I’m not sure what the price on this is, but the reason for selling it is very funny: A16th birthday present for my son, wife said no, wife is hott, jeeps gotta go:(
